Study Notes
Titration Process
- The indicator used in the titration process is typically phenolphthalein, which changes color at a specific pH range, indicating the endpoint of the reaction.
Purpose of the Experiment
- The primary purpose of the experiment is to determine the concentration of a hydrochloric acid (HCl) solution by titrating it with a sodium hydroxide (NaOH) solution of known concentration.
Principle of the Experiment
- The underlying principle is based on acid-base neutralization where a strong base (NaOH) reacts with a strong acid (HCl) to form water and salt, allowing quantitative analysis of the acid concentration.
Chemical Reaction for Neutralization
- The neutralization reaction can be represented as:
- HCl (aq) + NaOH (aq) → NaCl (aq) + H₂O (l)
Apparatus Not Required
- A thermometer is not required for this titration experiment, as temperature does not significantly affect the acid-base reaction in typical laboratory conditions.
